The plan is to raise enough money as well as ongoing interest
in the Kentucky forest, through future years, to support and maintain
the forest.
Arts, and wild herbs, are two areas of activity and interest. It is desired
to have members/supporters from other places, as well as locally.
Arts productions that invite new young artists can be a source of
funding, as well as getting new young people involved in the forest project
as time goes on. How do we involve people who live far away, in other
countries, etc., so they want to participate, and feel connected
to the project? How can we share the inspiration of the forest with
artists at a distance? Writers, graphic artists, theatre, music, etc.?
Wild herbs could possibly create funding, but only with intensive site
management. How can we help people to feel a sense of investment in
the wild herbs habitat (the forest) when they live far away?
How can it work to have some local members, and some who live far away,
with interest in the wild herbs?
